Delayed SMS on Verizon Network
We are noticing when we send email to text to some of our corporate mobile phones that some users report up to 18 hour delay before receive text messages. We use this method should we have a site down incident, but with hours of delay it’s posing a challenge. We are using O365 email to Verizon SMS. We are able to email to…

Smart Family cannot remove time restrictions
I set up time restrictions on my kids' phones to limit distractions while they were at school and during the night. Now I want to remove these time restrictions but I'm not able to. According to Verizon's instructions, you are supposed to tap the "remove" button on the bottom left of the time restrictions screens, but…

Call Filter Free Question
I reached my allowed numbers limits, but many of those numbers are in my Contacts. If I unallow them in the filter, will they come through because they are in my Contacts? Some of my family and friends match the area code and neighborhood filters.
Message +
I have a new Samsung Zfold 3, swapped for my broken zfold 3. In message + when I read a message on my old phone the heading switched from BOLD to regular text. On my new phone it does not. I found it very helpful that I could choose not to read a message when busy if I wanted and tell quickly later which ones I hadn't…
Moto e Android phone
I set a Text Message tone on my Moto e Android phone when I first got it, but the tone has stopped working. I haven't had the phone very long, maybe 3 or 4 months. I've tried all the things the Help on my phone tells me to do, but nothing's working. HELP!

Why is my bank account charged for $5.99 for Verizon Cloud separately when it is included in my plan? I have called several times and no one can figure out how to stop this charges. I don't want to keep calling for a refund.

The Verizon SMS gateway (vtext.com) does not respond to attempts to deliver messages. This problem began around noon on 4/18/2023. We are a gated community and send text messages to residents when their visitors arrive at the gate. We send about 100 texts per day to Verizon customers. Around 700 - 800 residents are Verizon…
Smart family issues
I’m having a terrible time with Smart Family! My son has an iPhone 12 mini on the Just Kids plan. Smart family and the companion apps are downloaded and paired. Content filters are on. He’s trying to download an app that I want him to have. When he tries, it sends me a text saying he’s requesting permission and then…
Message+ using /(invalid)/vzmedia directory
I see that when I save media files from Message+ it's using "This PC\Galaxy S21 FE 5G\Internal storage\Download\(invalid)\VZMedia ". There is also a "This PC\Galaxy S21 FE 5G\Internal storage\VZMedia". I see the last file in the latter directory is 5/19/2022. All new files are going to the path that has "(invalid)" in the…
Auto reply for Contacts only
I love the auto-reply feature of Verizon Messages+. However, due to the frequency of receiving phishing and otherwise fraudulent texts which we would ordinarily report as spam, I would like to have the ability to use the auto-reply only for those people in my phone's Contacts list. I do not see a way to suggest this to…
Group Text
Same issue as many I've seen on this forum...just wondering if in 2023 there has been a resolution. To restate.... Group Texts in Messager+ when creating an enhanced group does not display name, only number, even when all members have contacts saved. Yes, some are iPhones...yes, many are not Verizon customers. Is there a…

Can I Change The Contact List in Message app to only show mobile numbers?
I am using the Verizon Message+ app (version 9.3.0) on my Samsung galaxy phone. When I start a new text, the contact list brings up email addresses and landline phones for my contact, as well as eventually the mobile number. Is there a way to just get mobile numbers? I would never text an email or landline.

Not receiving MMS from T-Mobile users
I have seen this problem mentioned by several other users but it seems the issue has never been solved or adequate support provided.
